Enhance the Windows Clipboard with ClipJump

If Microsoft invested even a fraction of the amount of time it does on Windows 8, the Windows clipboard could be something revolutionary in the computer world. Instead, the Windows clipboard is a dull, barely functional tool for the majority of Windows users. ClipJump is a supercharged Windows Clipboard add-on that helps make it different.

What Makes ClipJump Different

There are a lot of clipboard managers out there that attempt to make the Windows clipboard even better but fail to live up to the market. I’ve been using ClipJump for almost a year now, and I have found that the clipboard channels make all the difference for me. If I’m working on different projects and need to save things in a specific way, being able to switch between clipboards makes it that much easier to find the information I need. Couple the different clipboards with a history of what I’ve copied, I’ve never had an issue finding what I need to when I need it. Let’s show you what makes ClipJump different.

We recommend all new users do so, there’s plenty more to ClipJump than meets the eye. Click “Yes.”

Usage

ClipJump has several settings that can make using it more efficient for users, including the ability to customize the keyboard shortcuts to use for your clipboard. You’ll also be able to set how long ClipJump’s clipboards keep their history. Depending on your disk space, this can be one of the more useful options for ClipJump.

Clipboard Channels and History

ClipJump allows you to create multiple clipboards and switch to them as necessary. This is an amazing way to keep certain information separate for use later. You can create several clipboards depending on the size of your drive, and use them as you see fit.

ClipJump’s history goes back only as far as you limit it in the settings. This is a way to keep everything you’ve ever copied handy for use at a later time or just for remembering something you found on the Web that you forgot about. ClipJump’s history also allows you to preview, paste and work with anything you have saved in a clipboard. This means if you accidentally copied additional information down the line, you can go back and recover what you’ve saved in its history.

Incognito Mode

Incognito Mode, available from the toolbar icon, allows you to turn off ClipJump but still have access to your clipboard history. This allows you to copy and paste items without saving them to ClipJump for whatever reason you may have

Conclusion

There is so much more to ClipJump than what we’ve shown you how to do in this guide. We encourage you to check out ClipJump’s official blog, read through the in-depth tutorials there as well as tinker with ClipJump yourself. If you ever wanted a powerful Windows clipboard, ClipJump is one of the best solutions for getting the job done when using the Windows clipboard.

ClipJump is a must-have clipboard manager seriously. I have used it 2 days and now can understand how it’s superb. Clipboard monitoring, the history keeper, the copy file data option, the no-formatting feature, the fixate features and obviously THE super independent channels are the highlights for me.
